About: I've been caring for animals consistently since 2020, and my experience began with my own German Shepherd, whom I've raised since he was just 6 weeks old. Watching him grow from a tiny puppy into an adult dog has taught me so much about every stage of a dog's life. Caring for him has given me hands on experience and helped me become a patient, responsible, and attentive pet caregiver. Over the years, I've also had the opportunity to care for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors, earning their trust to look after their beloved companions. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Treating every pet as if they were my own is something I take great pride in. I'm currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Spending my days walking dogs and caring for animals is the perfect way for me to stay active, get my steps in, and do something I genuinely enjoy. I'm available during both the daytime and evenings, and I'm happy to work around your pet's routine whenever possible. Whether your furry friend needs a walk, playtime, or just some extra love and attention while you're away, I'm here to provide reliable, attentive care. I know every pet is different, so I'll always follow your routine and care instructions to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I'll give them lots of attention, keep a close eye on them, and treat them like they're my own. I'm also happy to send pictures and updates so you know they're in good hands while you're away.
“Emily is amazing with our puppy!! She has walked him multiple times now and is very reliable and spends such quality time with him! It is hard being away at work but I feel so much better knowing he has such a great time walking and playing with her. She sends lots of pictures of him having fun and gives us updates on how the day went :)”

“Caden made an instant connection with my dog Charlie. I introduced them and then they went on a walk together. I immediately booked Caden for the three days the following week. He was on time all three days and notified me when the walks were finished. He brought in my UPS package and texted me. He also gave Charlie a drink and filled up his water dish. I found Caden to be very personable, on-time and responsible. I unconditionally recommend Caden.”

I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and caring looking after your pet, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for during our time together. I work from home Monday through Thursday, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. On weekends, I work as a wedding coordinator, but my schedule is still flexible since I manage my own calendar. This allows me to be reliable, communicative, and accommodating when it comes to your pet’s routine and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with plenty of safe areas for walks, a dog park, and a medium-sized backyard for outdoor time and play. I always stick closely to any routines or instructions provided by owners. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog with the same attention, patience, and love I would give my own.

“Katie did an outstanding job walking our two dogs. Her level of responsibility was truly commendable, and it was evident that our dogs absolutely loved her! Not only did she provide us with daily updates, but she also shared pictures of their time together. Additionally, Katie went above and beyond by keeping an eye on our cat, despite having a neighbor feeding him. We were genuinely impressed with her care and attention to detail. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Katie and fully trust her to walk our dogs again the next time we're away.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Applewood
Donne has been super easy to work with. I have to be in the office two days a week, and my only option would be to leave my dog Hazel in her crate for upwards of 8 hours on those days, so having Donne come over and take Hazel for a walk, has taken that stress away. She lets herself in, takes my dog for a walk, give's her some water and a treat, and then puts her back in the crate. She locks the door on the way out. If you have the chance to book with her, I can tell you that you can trust that she'll take good care of your animal, and won't have to stress over it.
Gina has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she walks. She always sends updates and makes sure the dogs get great, thorough walks. Alaska was always happy and well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Highly recommend her.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Applewood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Applewood.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Applewood. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
